Hi, I’d like to share a philosophy that guides me as a therapist: making therapy approachable and understandable. I believe that starts with building a real connection, so I want to share a bit about myself. I’m a Black therapist passionate about supporting clients from diverse backgrounds, particularly those dealing with identity issues, anxiety, and depression. I believe in exploring life’s challenges and recognizing that many struggles come from factors beyond our control. Together, we can understand what’s causing that pain and begin to reclaim your direction.
Your story, your background, and your individuality are essential in this process. Therapy is a collaborative effort, and I see myself as a guide alongside you, helping you move towards your goals at a pace that feels right for you.
I look forward to supporting you on this journey. Feel free to reach out to me using the contact information provided

I primarily utilize Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) as my therapeutic approach, which integrates mindfulness techniques as well as viewing problems as the problem, and not you as the problem. Additionally, I incorporate existential themes to my therapy to help think about what type of life we would like to live. My goal is to help you achieve the best version of yourself possible.
